State rankings are generally just based on socioeconomic status. It is easy to be "known for good schools" when your state is demographically consistent with those groups that tend to do well on standardized tests (white, asian, high SES, etc.) But looking at school rankings based on that criteria is not being a good consumer of data. When you disaggregate based on race/socioeconomic status, the picture looks very different and Florida schools are among the top in the nation. It is more meaningful and technically sound to compare apples to apples- e.g., how does a low SES black student fare in FL fare compared to a low SES black student in Maryland? A high SES white student in FL vs. a high SES white student in CT? This article does a great job explaining this:
